>You are Maple Son-Mahogany, one of two young Tuffle twins thrown at Earth starting in early Dragon Ball by your "father," Dr. Raichi

>"Canon" had already taken a sharp turn from the "norm" when you began, and through your actions, choices, and dialogue, took even further turns from the "norm," and will probably continue to do so

>Stats and dice mechanics are used, and can be explained again as needed

>Let's all try to have some fun, ok?

Last time, on Dragon Ball Tuffle Quest Z! Towa gave you a vague warning about an event in three years' time. You then encountered Goku's brother, Raditz, and will be training with him and your friends in order to prepare for the arrival of Saiyan Prince Vegeta and his lackey Nappa, heading to Earth in a year...

You and Goku prepare breakfast, Raditz outside your home attempting to practice. The smell of food cooking brings him in, though he's a bit taken back by the sight. "Not many Saiyans would care about cooking skills beyond the basics, what's needed for survival. Yet here you are, Kakarot-"

"Goku." you correct him again, getting Peppa and Gohan their meals, some nice, warm oatmeal. Your daughter immediately tries to make a mess with it, to her brother's amusement.

"...cooking with your..." Raditz looks at you uneasily. "Wife. It's so... domestic. That the Super Saiyan of all people is doing this... it's just..." He shakes his head.

Goku just laughs, finishing what he was cooking. "Aheh, at first I was like that, just hunting and eating what I needed, but Maple's helped me learn to really cook." He places some Paozusaurus steak in front of Raditz, a few eggs with it. "Really fun, once you get the hang of it!"

"Hrmnh." He pokes at the meal curiously, trying to look disinterested. "And here I thought you somehow picked them up from our mother..."

>A. What was your mom like, if you don't mind me prying? Sure Goku'd like to know too>B. You can learn too, Raditz, if you'd like>C. So, have you thought about taking anyone up on training offers?>D. Something else?

>>43277525>A. What was your mom like, if you don't mind me prying? Sure Goku'd like to know too>B. You can learn too, Raditz, if you'd like>C. So, have you thought about taking anyone up on training offers?

Can we take the kids to go see Grandpa Gohan soon? I kinda want lil Gohan and Peppa to play with their gramps while we see what Annin has to offer.

>>43277525>A. What was your mom like, if you don't mind me prying? Sure Goku'd like to know too>B. You can learn too, Raditz, if you'd like>C. So, have you thought about taking anyone up on training offers?

"No." he says flatly, taking a bite of the steak. You notice a subtle smile as he bites into it. "Ahm uh prowud Sayhun wurheuh."

Table manners aren't his strong suit, then. It is kind of funny, though, Peppa and Gohan laughing as they see their uncle talk with his mouth full. You shake your head and sigh a little. "Well... if you don't mind me asking, what was your mother like? I mean, I'm sure Goku'd like to know as well..."

"Hey, yeah! What was she like?" Goku asks with a curious smile, cutting into his own steak.

Raditz goes quiet for a moment, finishing chewing the bite of steak he has in his mouth. He stares at the food before him, almost... nostalgically? "...not all Saiyans are capable fighters. Our mother, Gine was part of our father's squad, but she... didn't have the fighting spirit most Saiyans do. She'd constantly get into blunders on missions, Bardock having to save her from whatever trouble she got into. She was mocked constantly by the other members. But..." Raditz stares at you for a moment before continuing. "...our father took a bit of pity on her, and it was obvious she cared deeply for him. Her 'hero.' She was eventually reassigned to work as a butcher. She... did make some good meals." the Saiyan admits, then goes back to work on eating the steak.

>A. Try to get him to work with Piccolo, they might get along better>B. Tien's a good choice of a teacher, he has a lot of useful skills and techniques>C. Baba's might be a good place to start, plus I'm sure she might have some surprises for you...>D. Turtle School is always open, and I AM a Master of it>E. Something else?

>>43278205>>A. Try to get him to work with Piccolo, they might get along better

God, this is actually a weirdly important and hard to make choice. But I just love the idea of this so I have to say yes to Piccolo doing this. He could really learn a lot from training someone. Tien has Chiaotzu already, not a student, but a friend and training buddy.

>>43278205You give him a prideful smile. "Turtle School is always open, and, well, I AM a-"

"No." he says in a way that's hiding some... well, a mixture of anger and embarrassment.

Yeah, guess not. "Well, Tien offered to help, and you might get along with Piccolo, but... maybe you want to give Auntie, er, Fortuneteller Baba's a chance? She taught us some useful skills. Might be worth the trip."

"...Fortuneteller. Right." Raditz is... less than convinced.

Goku frowns. "But she us lots of times! She even brought back some people from the afterlife to-"

"The what?!" Raditz is... intrigued now. Well well.

"A few people. There was brobro and I's old Teacher, Izumi. Goku's adoptive grandpa, Gohan. And even a powerful Saiyan..." You smirk a little. "You could do well to try it, at least."

Raditz crosses his arms, thinking this over. It's clear he's having trouble believing all of this, but at the same time is just curious enough to play along. "All right, take me to this Fortuneteller."

You and your husband grin at him wide, then you turn to your kids. "Gohan, Peppa, wanna see Baba today?"

"BABA!" the two of them shout out excitedly. Guess that's a yes. After cleaning things up, you head over, flying with Raditz and Goku, kids with your husband on the Nimbus. Raditz approaches you cautiously, his mind... very clouded.

"...tell me, w-" He stops himself and forces out your name. "Maple, just what kind of training does this 'Baba' woman do?"

>A. That's a secret~>B. Explain a bit to him, but not everything>C. Go into detail, prepare him>D. Something else?

"Your father had psychic powers. I don't think he was used to them like me, but it could be possible for you to have powers like that."

>Demonstrate by floating stuff with telekinesis

You can sense energy without a scouter, read minds, and lift objects with but a thought. You become psychic and that'll put you on a different level then those who merely use ki and physical might. I bet Vegeta and Nappa rely on their scouters and can't read minds."

>Telepathy"Did you know I can hear your mind and talk in your head? I've mastered these abilities and I can even see bits of the future. I can even scry for people if I work with Auntie and Brobro."

>>43279142"A number of her fighters have unique skills and abilities. Brobro and I learned Telekinesis, like you saw before..." And now to give him a real surprise. 'And Telepathy, and a special skill that your father had as well.'

"Wait, my father?" He's actually legitimately more surprised by that than the Telepathy. Well, guess it makes sense.

"Turns out, he could see the future. And-" And then it hits you. "...did Vegeta ever tell you of Bardock's fate?"

Your brother-in-law gives you a curious look. "He died with the rest of the planet when the met-" The Saiyan man stops himself, recalling what you told him. "...when Freeza destroyed our world." He clenches his fists, anger boiling up inside him. "He will pay for that."

"I'm not gonna let him hurt anyone on this planet." Goku says with determination. "None of us will."

"...you really are attached to this backwards world, aren't you?" Raditz asks with a dismissive curiosity.

>A. It's not as backwards as you'd think>B. Tell Raditz about some of the things that've happened on Earth>C. Tell Raditz a bit more about Bardock, and your encounter>D. Something else?

>>43279572>A. It's not as backwards as you'd think - tell him a little about pre-genocide Planet Plant societies.>B. Tell Raditz about some of the things that've happened on Earth>C. Tell Raditz a bit more about Bardock, and your encounter

>>43279572>A. It's not as backwards as you'd think>B. Tell Raditz about some of the things that've happened on EarthI mean it has to be important if Namekian Warriors, Makyans, Galactic Patrolmen and Demons fight over it.

>A. It's not as backwards as you'd think>B. Tell Raditz about some of the things that've happened on Earth>C. Tell Raditz a bit more about Bardock, and your encounter>Project the image that Bardock gave during his last stand.

>>43279572"First off, it's not as backwards as you might think." you tell him a bit defensively. "And second... well. I guess you really don't know." Before Raditz can argue, you start explaining things to him, projecting into his mind Bardock's last stand against Freeza... and then explaining a bit about the Pendulum room to him, your encounter there, and, ultimately, how you weren't able to defeat Freeza... but did attract the attention of his brother, Cooler, in the simulated encounter. You then go into explaining some of the things that happened on Earth, but not in too much detail. The Dumb Name Army, former Demon King Shura, King Piccolo, Dr.s Kochin and Wheelo... and a bit about Towa. He still finds it all hard to believe, but... not as much as before.

As you land, you notice a few people there again, a line with a clearly rich couple, some fighters you vaguely recognize, and... oh hey, Mark, Diavolo, and... aw, little Videl. Peppa gives a little shout of "Viduh!" as Gohan shyly smiles at her.

"Well well, if it isn't the Champion couple." Mark says with a laugh. "Who's this guy?"

>>43280065You raise an eyebrow. "What's this about a kids' division? I mean, I was nine when I became Champion. What gives?"

"Eh, with the Tournament becoming more and more popular, there've been... concerns." Diavolo tells you. "Especially after the Garlic Jr. fiasco. So, it'll be separated into two divisions, a junior one and a regular one. Kids twelve and under are in the junior one."

"Lame." you mumble out. However... well, guess it makes sense. You turn to little Videl Power Level is... 12. "So you're gonna compete, huh? You know, you're almost as strong as Chi-chi was when brobro and I first met her."

Her eyes go wide as she shouts out an excited "REALLY?!" Peppa and Gohan crawl around her, chasing each other's tails.

"Yep! But don't let that go to your head, there are lots of strong fighters out there. Listen to your parents, and train hard." You ruffle her hair a little.

Mark laughs proudly. "She'll be the Junior Champ in no time!"

As he and his group head in, you tell the ghost usher about why you're here, the pink spirit floating away in a hurry. Raditz is surprised by its appearance, but tries not to comment on it. "So... I recall you mentioning this... King Piccolo had hurt your brother." He looks down at you suspiciously. "It sounded like far more than a simple injury. Yet he was able to meet me. How?"

Goku wants to say something, but you stop him. Need to be careful with this information...

>A. It's a secret, for now>B. I'll tell you, but you're going to have to make a few promises>C. Something else?

>>43280692His scouter is blocked from Vegeta, Nappa and the PTO right? We've linked it to our network and upgraded it to not go boom and such?

>"God made seven magical orbs that can summon a dragon from the center of the earth that can grant you one wish every year, up to and including bringing the recently deceased who died by unnatural causes back to life. ALSO god is an alien too. Actually gods are another race entirely.

>>43281184Oh, sorry, wasn't actually the guy suggesting Tao. I just was looking at backgrounds-specifically, mercenary and ruthless-and figured out of all the people we know, Tao would be the closest in mentality to Raditz currently, and possibly form social links with the Saiyan more easily. Tien and Chiaotzu, while greater martial artists, lack that mentality. Besides, it could get Raditz more interested in Tien and Chiaotzu as teachers.

>>43280692"I'll tell you, Raditz, but you're going to have to make some promises." You hold up your finger. "If you do, I'll throw in something else."

He sighs angrily. "Fine."

You pop out a couple Spirit Bits. "Promise you're not going to try anything... reckless, when you hear this, okay? And you'll get this handy skill."

He looks at them curiously, Peppa and Gohan trying to chase after them, your son almost tripping and falling, his sister catching him and helping him back up. "And these are...?" You then fire a few shots in the distance, a smirk appearing on Raditz's face. "...handy indeed. Fine. I'll go by your rules."

You and Goku nod at each other. "Well... in a summary? 'Namekian Space Magic.'"

"...what."

You laugh a little. "There are these orbs called 'Dragon Balls.' If you gather all seven of them, the Eternal Dragon, Shenron, can grant a wish. Even bring back those who died a relatively recent, unnatural death." Your tone gets a bit more serious. "...King Piccolo's minions killed my brother. Then tried to rob us of any hope of bringing him back by destroying Shenron. While powerful, the Dragon Balls are limited. I... we couldn't let him do what he wanted. He had to be stopped."

"...and you went on a quest of vengeance because of what he did." Raditz adds, a far more... understanding look on his face. "...so, they were restored?"

"Yep. You saw my Granpa's Dragon Ball a few times at home." Goku comments.

You can sense a lot of conflict going on in Raditz's mind. He's speculating on the potential of the Dragon Balls, but ultimately tries to focus on what's at hand. For now, at least. "...Vegeta would do anything to get his hands on them. And... Freeza-"

"They won't." you say with a determined stance.

"Because you will stop them." Baba adds, floating towards you all. Your kids run over to her excitedly.

>A. Is that a prediction, Auntie Baba?>B. So, you think you have anything for Raditz?>C. Something else?

>>43281382"Is that a prediction? Because I thought family don't get discounts." you ask with a cheeky grin.

"No." she replies with a smile. "It's faith. The 'Wild Cards' have changed many things. Many fates. I have faith they'll do it once again." She turns to Raditz. "A rarity we meet like this, I suppose."

>>43281731>A>Is Spike training Beelz? Teaching him that Devilmite Beam will let him keep that throne even from his Dad.>C. Talk with your husband about something"We should take the kids to see Grandpa Gohan soon. We could see if Annin has anything we could learn. I need to upgrade my sword soon. Maybe even see if Brobro can lend Raditz his old sword."

>>43281731"So, Spike's not around here. There a reason for that?" you ask, slowly floating Gohan up over your head with telekinesis, the boy giggling as his sister tries to grab at his tail. "I mean, it'd have to be awfully important..."

"Indeed. The Prince of the Demon Realm has requested a special audience with him." she informs you. Aha, of course. "I've wished him well."

"Kinda wish I got to meet him. He seemed nice." Goku mentions. "Say, Maple, what should we do after this?"

You catch Peppa, the girl laughing happily. "Was kind of thinking on checking up with Gohan, if he's still with Annin. Or at least, if not today, maybe some time later."

"Ah, he will only be there until the end of the year." Baba adds. She takes Raditz to an open area... Undine waiting for him. She explains the rules to him, Raditz getting slightly cocky as he readies himself.

Peppa and Gohan try to head towards the arena, but you stop them, distracting the two with a bit of the elastic material Raditz's armor is made of. They immediately try chewing on it.

>>43282291"Remember, Raditz. You can't always take the direct route with your enemies. Fighting smarter, not harder, will win this for you." you instruct him, then turn your attention back to your kids.

"Hah, don't underestimate me." His aura flares around him. "I've dealt with plenty of tricky fighters before." At first it seems like Undine has the upper hand as she easily dodges aside his blows, countering with blasts of water. Raditz, however, displays a surprising amount of endurance, and soon starts to manage himself against her attacks. Guess his skills aren't all that bad, just unpolished. Makes sense given his history, and Goku seems pretty focused on the fight.

Your kids, however... "Not for eating, Gohan, Peppa."

"Fuh eafin!" your daughter says defiantly, trying to tear at it. You try to pick her up, the girl scurrying away with the elastic material. Gohan is forced to let go of it and starts to cry, you quickly scooping him up and patting him on the head.

"Shh shh, it's okay sweetie." He calms down a little, though Peppa's still scurrying around with the thing in her mouth. "Peppa, no."

"Pehpuh yuhs!" She shouts, starting to laugh. Oh no you don't kiddo. You quickly stop her with telekinesis, moving her up. "Awww..."

"Not for eating." you quickly get the thing out of her mouth, your daughter looking at you in defeat. "Not good for you."

"Buh wanna!"

"Makes your tummy upset." Probably. It's certainly not a material one should be chowing down on. She relents, mumbling an attempted apology.

"SATURDAY CRASH!" Raditz roars, knocking Undine into the water with the sheer force of his energy attack.

>>43283041You walk over to your brother-in-law with your kids in your arms. "Congrats, Raditz. Looks like you have some really sharp skills. Heh, I bet if you keep this up your training you'll be facing me or Goku in the World Tournament."

He grunts a little dismissively at the idea. "I'm focused on trying to survive the upcoming encounter with Nappa and Vegeta, I'm not exactly interested in your world's competitions."

"Ah, that's a shame." Goku comments with a frown. Then... an idea hits him. "You know, maybe if you try hard enough, you could become a Super Saiyan too, brobro! I became one during the last Tournament, maybe... there's some sort of trigger to it that involves trying to fight your hardest, but for something more than survival."

You notice Goku's leaving a lot of details out of his encouraging speech. 'Monkey boy, what's your game here?'

'I don't know if he can do it too, but it's worth trying. I kinda want to get him thinking about it.'

Raditz looks at his brother curiously. "You... the legend says that only ONE shows up every thousand years."

>>43284198You giggle softly. Oh monkey boy. You let them talk for a bit, heading over to Undine. "Well, it's been a while since we last met. How've you been?"

The water spirit pops her head out of Baba's little lake. "Busy. Bored usually. You always manage to bring such amusing people, though. Like that cutie brother of yours. And now this handsome young man." She giggles playfully. You give her a suspicious look. "Oh relax, I'm just teasing~"

"Uh-huh."

"Really, I was there for your wedding after all. Acer and Chi-chi were so adorable together. And... as handsome as he is, he needs to learn how to..." She swims along, making oddly soothing little ripples in the water. "...relax a bit, go with the flow."

"Wa-wa!" Peppa says to you, pointing down at Undine.

"That's right, water." you tell her, giving her a gentle nuzzle.

Gohan shakes his head at his sister, though. "Wa... ta..."

"Wa-ta?" your daughter manages to repeat.

"Wa-ta!" Gohan cheers.

"M-mother?!"

"No, wa-wait what?" You spin back around and notice... well then. Goku and Raditz stare, stunned as a Saiyan woman stands before them.

"...so this is how we meet again, huh?" she asks with a pleasant smile.

>A. Mom talk! Oh I have SOOOOO many questions!>B. Stay back, she wants to talk to her sons first, probably>C. Something else?

>>43284287>B. Stay back, she wants to talk to her sons first, probablyNever liked Minus and the retcons but curious how Kato's going to handle this. Legit more interested in how this plays out than if we got Tuffle Quest Bardock.

DQ 7 was a kinda disappointment, far too late and was compared with more 'modern' games.

Really liked the Nintendo DS rereleases of 4, 5 and 6. Pretty ironic it came so much later then the game boy color rereleases of 3. I was so annoyed when the shit canned the DQ 4 playstation version a while ago.

>>43284287While the temptation is there to, well, try to mom-talk her head off, this is important. You stay back with the kids, watching quietly. Raditz approaches the woman. "...of all the places to end up. H-how..." He rubs the back of his neck, slightly embarrassed. "...there's no good way to start any of the questions I have."

https://youtu.be/QObNK3dHe7c

The Saiyan woman smiles. "I missed you too, Raddy."

Raditz flinches. "Ugh... mother..."

Goku takes a hesitant step. "So, ah, uh..."

Gine looks over her son. "...you look just like your father did, Kakarot."

>>43287909"You can stay with your brother, try to live like him. You can defeat Vegeta and Nappa and then leave, stronger, but continue with how things have been. Or you can try something else, try it with everything you have." She approaches her son calmly. "This will stick with you for the rest of your life."

"...I..." He steps back, scratching his head in frustration. "Mother I'm a warrior, like father, not like-"

"Me?"

He clenches his fists. "...I can't be like you, mother. I don't know if I can be like Kakarot. I..." He looks down, angrily. "...I'm not Vegeta, but I've been his lackey for too long. I can't just... change who I am all of a sudden!"

She places her hand on his shoulder. "You don't have to."

"THEN WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!" he roars.

Gine holds her son tight. "I want you to live. Please." Goku smiles at the scene before him, shyly rubbing the back of his neck. His mother looks towards him. "Kakarot, or... if you must, Goku, please. Help your big brother grow strong. And..." She looks in your direction. "Help your kids grow strong too."

Gohan and Peppa try to move out of your arms to meet the new lady before them. She lets go of Raditz, but there's this really uneasy look in her eyes. Like she wants you to come over, but... she's somehow upset.

>A. Approach her>B. Try to talk to Raditz>C. Stay where you are, maybe telepathically communicate with her first>D. Something else?

>>43287909We need to tell her she has grandkids and ask her how to be a parent, and ask how many grandkids she wanted to have and introduce our kids to their grandmom and ask if Gine had any kids other than kids other than Goku and Raditz and introduce her to grandpa gohan and grandma izumi and try to get her to babysit for us so we can have some goddamn rest once in a while and S Q U E E EEEEE

>>43288249That would be almost impossible considering the thing's structure. Attempting to grab it will result in the penile organ retracting, and your hand will slip off the skin wrinkles.

Pull them by their hair instead.

Or do what I do. Get a leash, and whenver you're in one place for a decent period of time (e.g. in a restaurant), tie the leashes to something.People give me such weird looks, it's great.Not that it'd stop my kids, they know to unlatch the collar. It's purely for the weird looks.

I'm not sure how I'm going to explain to them why their mother has a leash too, sometimes.Ah I'm sure they won't bother questioning it.

>>43287976You hesitantly walk towards her, a quick scan of her mind revealing... what you thought it might be. 'It... had to be a Tuffle, huh?'

...no. You're going to make her confront this. Awkward and hard as it might be for her. "...h-hello. I'm Maple, your son's wife-" That catches a glare. "...and, well, this is your grandson, Gohan, and your granddaughter, Peppa."

She raises an eyebrow at the mention of her granddaughter's name. "...Peppa. A... Saiyan name..."

You blush a little. "It's a cute name." Your daughter starts babbling at her grandmother incoherently, Gohan just looking at the Saiyan woman with curiosity. "...I know it's not something you were ever expecting-"

"No." she states rather bluntly. "...I might not be an accomplished warrior but I was there. I was a part of your race's extinction, Maple." she almost hisses your name.

You give her a determined look. "...and you know what? I couldn't care less about that. Ghost dad... Dr. Raichi, he wanted us to be something that strikes back at the Saiyans for our race's death, to be vengeful phantoms given flesh. We rejected it. The past is behind us. We'll make the last voices of the Saiyans and the Tuffles be something more than the whimper that tyrants wanted us to be."

She's a bit surprised by that, but still has a less than pleased look on her face. "You can claim that, I guess." she says with a shrug. She then steps towards you, patting Peppa's short black hair. "...Promise me one thing. That you'll do everything in your power to protect these two. More than your own life."

>A. I fail, you can drag me to Hell personally for it>B. Solemn nod>C. Can... I ask you a few things?>D. Something else?

>>43289197I bet you think Son Maple is still called "Maple Son-Mahogany" too, despite near-unanimous agreement about removing the hypen from Maple's name.Sure, there was a samefag spamming image macros but we told that autistic retard to fuck off.

>>43289299>near-unanimousNah.I said my opinion on it once or twice and then just sat back and watched several of you autists get into a war. Some shared my stance, some opposed it. But it most certainly was nowhere near unanimous, despite how you may remember it.Besides, it is difficult to tell just how many anons participate in a conversation.

Okay guys. Operation Berlin Wall is a go. If you aren't a faggot who gives a shit about stupid things like a hyphenated last name, stop engaging in any way shape or form. Any response to the faggots that keep sperging about it. Please, do this. They can yell inside their bubble all they want. This is the last time you should post anything related to them

>>43289792Yes, Even though this is a useless vote since Kato won't change it either way, Also this whole thing was about Maples last name, Which should remain Mahogany since Maple Son sounds fucking retarded.

>>43290308>You're right, I don't like the outcome a few of us got to decide for the rest of us.

That's the point, though. Had it gone the way you wanted it to in the first place, you wouldn't be arguing that anyone's "liberty" was being taken away or anything. You wouldn't care that "a few got to decide things for the rest of us", because you would already have gotten your way.

It's okay to not like the names, but don't try and pretend you're being in any way altruistic, man. You're crying because you didn't get your way.

>>43290415As someone who doesn't like how the name turned out, it's literally impossible for anything to be less offensive than something that is entirely inoffensive. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but you guys just need to drop it already.

>>43290469>It's okay to not like the names, but don't try and pretend you're being in any way altruistic, man. You're crying because you didn't get your way.So you could say this is doing a right thing for the wrong reasons?

>>43289039You get a little defensive. You know why she feels this way, but... tch, like she has to ask. "Of course I'd protect them, that goes without saying. Any mother would. No force in the universe, not even Demon God Hirudegarn could get in my way of protecting them. I'd claw my way out of the afterlife to get at whoever was trying to hurt my babies. Any mother would, right?" Gine cracks a subtle smile. "I'll protect them, and your son. I fail, you can drag me to Hell personally for it."

She... actually laughs at that. "...you're not a typical Tuffle."

"Of course not." You nod. "...I'm not going to pretend I know everything about how Saiyans raised their kids. But I'd do everything I could to protect mine. So would your son."

Goku walks over, taking Gohan into his arms. "They're gonna grow up to be big and strong. They'll make you proud, uh... mom."

Gine's eyes start to water up. Peppa tries to reach for her grandmother's face, causing her to rub the tears away. ...might as well. "Um, Gine, do you know any good recipes? You know, something the kids might like."

"I know how to make a mean Tuffle steak." she says with a teasing look. "...actually, would you mind taking something down?" Gine requests, looking at Raditz. "...it's something he's never had in a long time."

"Mother..." Raditz mumbles out with embarrassment.

>A. I'd be honored>B. Do we even have the materials for it?>C. Any other questions?>D. Something else?

>>43290514No, I'd say this is you throwing a temper tantrum from how you have acted. That and some of the shit that got said in this argument is just flat out insulting. But I have someone to compare it to, a shitposter from /vp/. Kept insisting that goodra was female only, and ended up getting a small following of shitposters. They called him the slugfucker. That's who you remind me of right now.

>>43290557We're past the hyphenated last names part, this is about whether Peppa likes the Mahogany surname more, and if Gohan like the Son surname more, which, according to >>43278148>>43278155 and >>43278615>>43278655 respectively, they do, just like with how Gohan the Younger got his name.

>>43291078I feel like suggesting to blow up the planet just so these idiots have nothing to complain about, but then that is letting them win. And that would be bad. And thank goodness she isn't listening to them.

>>43291180To be fair, if that does end up happening, it'll be because the game crashed and burned because of shit like this thread. That's it, game over, everyone go home and shut up type of deal, more likely than not. Then all the people who are bitching here can realize they get nothing then.

How about we keep this shit simple. Male kids get the father's last name, female kids get the mother's last name. That way family names are inherited through gender as a sound rule that can carry on with future kids. That sound like an acceptable compromise for you guys?

>>43291744How about we keep this shit simple. Stop trying to drag this dumb argument on. That way people aren't shitting up the threads and we can get back to talking about stuff that actually matters as a sound rule that can carry on with future threads. That sound like an acceptable compromise for you guys?

>>43290629"If it's Tuffle steaks, I don't think I could help with that." you say with a nervous laugh. You notice her almost consider that. "R-really though, I'd be honored. I mean, I literally contacted your son's adoptive grandpa from beyond the grave just to find out how to make his favorite meal..."

Gine laughs at that too. "...I can see why Kakarot likes you." She starts to describe a rather interesting meal. Made from a kind of large bird, which... Earth may have some substitutes for, at least, and some kinds of chopped radish mixed in with some flour and made into fried cake things. Overall a really interesting meal, and something sure to be fun to make. You then spend some time actually just... talking with the Saiyans, your kids actually really enjoying spending time with their grandmother. You relay your adventures with Goku to Raditz and Gine, going into greater detail on the trials you've been through, the challenges you've faced together. Even your encounter with the past version of King Vegeta, and your eventual encounter with Yazai. Raditz had heard rumors about a "traitor" of a Saiyan trying to stop King Vegeta before, but never really gave much thought to it all. Soon, the topic turns to the only member of your husband's family tree that you know is missing from this little reunion.

>>43292143"Was, um, Bardock busy, or did you want to come here first?" you ask, comforting Peppa after she stepped on her own tail.

"The day pass works for one person, Maple." Baba comments. "...in time, you may meet him again."

Gine smiles nostalgically at the mention of that name. You ask her one final set of questions, about how to best raise Saiyan kids. She's actually quite surprised on how much you've picked up on your own, and the planned Oozaru practice at the end of the month, a full moon on the 31st, she's quite approving of it.

That's when Raditz speaks up. "...I can't control myself in that form." he admits with a bit of shame.

"Yet!" Goku tells him. "I'm gonna help ya, brobro!"

"Please stop calling me that." he grumbles.

This sounds like it'll be quite a birthday night...

>YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE SECOND SOCIAL LINK WITH RADITZ

>DRAGON BALL TUFFLE QUEST Z #2 END>Twitter account is @KatoQm, will have status updates there>Got some questions for the QM? Characters? Suggestions? Throw them at ask.fm/QMKato and I'll try to answer them as best I can

And we're done for tonight folks, I'll answer questions and such for a while. Did y'all have fun?

>>43292162I didn't really have fun this time. They really won't stop until they get a vote, I think. If it's not a big thing, maybe we should just do it. Quests are about fun, not endless shitposting, after all

>>43292162Had a blast Kato. Despite all the shitposting that can happen sometimes these threads are still one of the best parts of my Sundays. Really helps me break the monotony of designing lesson plans. And always remember You're best QM

Goku can talk coherently in Oozaru form. He can even use Telepathy in it.

He can't "completely" reach Golden Oozaru yet, as it requires more Blutz Waves than normal. Basically a "Full Earth" worth of them. He could potentially try to go Super Saiyan as an Oozaru, but it'd be exceptionally hard to control.

>I thought we agreed, smash then grab. Kill high power levels until we find Kakarot, kidnap his kid and have him follow us>WTF is with this OC character? 3k power level on Earth at start of DBZ? BULLSHIT>Chi-Chi TOO? She was worthless the whole series!>Ok we were not killed, but instead RAIL ROADED onto the main plot of DBZ! I though we agreed to hijack the pllot for Raditz Space Adventures!>Maybe we can just fuck off right when Vegeta shows up, beg for mercy and present him the heads of these soft fools?

>Now you play the MOTHER card? FUCK, Rail Road much more?>>Choo-Choo mutherfuckers, it is straight to DBZ main quest.

>>43292732I bet you're that duechbag in the office everbody hates, but you still think you shit is gold. Fuck off already, don't like this quest? Go find a new one, or better yet go run your own.>>43292755

>>43292471It'd take a long time for him to ever have as kickin'-rad skills as Piccolo has.

>>43292478How was Gine? I was trying to go for something different than just have him try to fight someone, end up failing, try to reconsider things that way. I know fandom has had mixed reactions to her in regards to canon. Also, attitude... sensible enough?

>>43292479Raditz should hang out with Baragon. They'd probably get along well.

>>43292491>>43292524>>43292564Look, anon, have you really thought this through? Considering the actions you've taken, you've probably aggravated enough people over this that those once apathetic to this will vote against you out of spite. Do you really want to go along with that? I'm sorry that you don't like this, but your actions have done a pretty poor job on getting people on your side. Thread reaction is clear on that part.

>>43292844Kato just ignore him. The rest of us are fine with your currant decision. This situation is like when a dm has a group of players and most everybody enjoys the direction of the game accept for this pne stupid fucker who keeps trying to split the party and do dumbshit. Do listen to this player. You are the QM, this is your quest.

>>43293004There is no truly good option. Allowing a vote would require letting what appears to be an enraged minority win through ego and persistence, but it is the only way to ameliorate the situation, and potentially end it. Not allowing a vote will simply cause the shitposting to continue and for the feelings of at least one anon to harden into spite instead of outrage, which is far more bothersome to deal with.

Guys i got it. I figured it out. We decide to legitimately have the vote but It gets scheduled for thread #300. Now whenever the shitposters complain about anything we just tell them "That will be addressed later among other things at thread #300". Problem solved.

>>43293190There isn't, get over it.>>43293249They are for some reason incredibly pissed that our name after marrying Goku has a hyphen in it, as we all know this is clearly our lesbian qm forcing her lesbian ways on us.Next she will kill goku and force us to marry Towa.

>>43292878>>43292895>>43293012>>43292897>>43292939I kinda wrote her the way I did because I felt it'd at least represent a "typical" attitude a Saiyan like her would have, even if she isn't a warrior. She finds the idea a bit revolting because the image of Tuffles as "the enemy" was ingrained in her head through her participation in the Saiyan-Tuffle War and eventual genocide. Your kids she's a bit more okay with, but... consider how it looks to her, with you pairing up with Goku, in some ways "changing" him away from what she expected of him. Or at least that's what she assumes.

In the end she can try to tolerate you for the sake of her sons and her grandkids. You obviously care about them more than a typical Saiyan would. You literally do care about Raditz more than most of the remaining Saiyans do, those who were supposed to be his comrades.

And... okay, guys, this is over. I guess you've basically voted on this anyway. Tally things up, or I can do it for you. Either way, names will not be changed. I'm sorry this upsets people. But we're done.

>>43293618In what way is she a liar.If you're going to insult some one atleast use one that applies.Let me come up with one for you, I could use liar, but that in no way applies from what I can see right now.

>>43293618Why am I getting a Governor from The Walking Dead vibe from you?>>43293602My tally is: 1 person wants to change the names and keeps samefagging it, the rest of us want to push him off the Hoover Dam.

>>43293602>Either way, names will not be changed.Hahaha, the names of our children are set in stone. You would think that would be in our hands, but you wouldn't think that should be in our hands to begin with.

>>43293602>Names will not be changedIts such a small thing, wow.It would affect exactly one thing: the pastebin.Hasn't been mentioned by any characters yet. Only small descriptive bits have even mentioned it.

The fact that you won't even accept a real vote is shitty, stubborn, and extremely disappointing.

Despite all of this, I still like you as a qm for the most part. Don't let it get you down at all, you will never please everyone. I'm just going to voice my extreme displeasure at what I perceive to be an awful decision among otherwise good decisions so far.

>>43293671When did she ever even remotely imply that? Also, look at this fucking thread! What the hell makes you feel that any fucking part of the things that happened here earned a vote in the first place?

>>43293972This is our story that she writes. Does your GM decide what your character's name gets changed to when they get married, or do you talk it out with them first? Apologies if this analogy is shit if you don't play tabletop games
